The outstanding Boys From The Blackstuff aired on TVOne in the '90's and I don't think it has been repeated. It would be one of the top 20 drama series shown even surpassing the excellent Auf Wiedersehen Pet. I think I'll have to buy the DVD series if it's available.
The local blackstuff boys laid new sealing on our road last week. As cars go along the road the tyres push loose gravel into the gutter. Yesterday and today I have been scooping this up into a barrow and dragging it home to seal our driveway.
Gravel is bloody heavy and our driveway is steep so after about 20 barrow-fulls I'm stuffed.
The top of the drive looks better though. The smaller gravel stones cover up the hellishly sharp granite chips that the previoius owners laid and will be easier to walk on.

Here's a suggestion Robert.
Ignore the boring part of the blog-post and refer to The Boys From The Blackstuff.
Watch on the web or buy and watch the series. I guarantee that you will be amazed and uplifted.
Giz us a job - I can do that ...
